You can feel it - not only hear it, but feel it. Whether it's the craziness of kickin' up your heels at a honky-tonk on Saturday night, or the pain of letting go of something you love, the music of Jason Howard captures an audience and makes them feel the experience of the song.

Packed with imagery and emotion, Jason Howard's music fuses the style and swing of traditional country with the drive and excitement of today's contemporary styles. Add a hint of the raw, no-nonsense approach of the blues, and you have one of the freshest, most irresistible forms of country music available.
